It’s almost New Year’s Eve.
Nearly 2017.
Ready to start this new year?
One of the best ways to get clarity is to choose a word, ONE word to focus on, to dive into.
ONE word to be your theme for the year.
In 2016, I chose receive.
I’ve spent the last 12 months really exploring what receive means to me. Some of the questions that I asked were:
- How do I allow myself to receive?
- Where am I limiting that?
- How do I experience opening up to receiving in my body, mind...
This inquiry taught me a lot about myself. About where I hold back, where I get stuck, where I feel afraid.
Through a deeper relationship with this word, receive, it's helped me open up more, relax more and allow myself to feel safe, comfortable and happy to let in all the abundance, happiness, opportunities and change that has come my way this year.
And now it’s time for me to choose a new word!
Here are 3 Ways to Help You Tune into Your Word for 2017
1. Ask
Get quiet and simply ask. What is my word for 2017? Is there something I could benefit from focusing on?
Here is a list of some of the words my students have chosen in the past: bold, trust, faith, love, dream. balance, speak, mindfulness, pause, deliberate.
2. Use A Book
If you’ve asked and nothing has come to you, you can always try this cool trick.
Grab a book, any book, off the shelf and close your eyes. Think about your word for the year and then randomly open the book. See where your eye lands and what it reveals.
3. Meditate on it
Once a word comes to you, try it on. Settle into the energy of that word.
- How does it feel?
- Is there an opportunity for learning and growth?
- Is this where you need to go in 2017?
If the answers feel affirming then you’re on the right track. Don’t be dismayed if you feel scared. That’s often a pre-requisite to change.
My husband often tells me that if he feels afraid, he knows he’s onto something!
